A ported version of Crontab for Windows.
nnCron is a crontab-like scheduler for Windows. It supports a powerful scripting language and can start applications, close them, dialup, hangup and perform virtually any task under Windows on a specified schedule. For that familiar with the built-in Linux schedule called crontab, nnCron works in a similar fashion but it includes a GUI.
As an advanced scheduler, nnCron can start and stop Windows services, run tasks as a specified user and can even wake up the computer to perform a task.
If you're more comfortable running the program in the command-line, you're free to do that. You're also free to use regular expressions or VBScript. People comfortable running it as a graphical user interface can also choose that option.
With the GUI, adding, editing, removing, changing, running tasks and more are extremely easy to do.
